Exige S2 outdoor car cover

[denisb]

Can anyone recommend a tailored outdoor car cover for an Exige S2?

I seem to have inadvertenly bought an Exige at the weekend!

[Alexbturbo]

Yep sure can from www.classicadditions.com

I dont have one for my Exige but have one of their tailored covers for my Focus RS & the fit & quality is spot on

You can get a 15% discount on them by mentioning StephenM from SELOC. See thread: http://forums.seloc.org/viewthread.php?tid=175978&...

I have some photos of it fitted- pm me if you want them sent.

CheeRS for that info bud - i thought (on the basis of my FRS one) that the Exige was also tailored - lloks like i'll be getting one for the Exige from carcoversuk as well then

just a word of warning from experience on car covers, buy them for what you want them to do

For example: At £70 ish a water resistant one will mean your motor will still get wet as they are just fabric coated with a water proofing treatment

If you want a dry car expect to pay £120 + and this 'should' be water proof although they wont guarantee it !

[denisb]

Mine was £175 including discount, as long as it stops foreign objects damaging the car and keeps the worst of the water out I'll be happy.

When I get it I'll report back.

It'll keep the worst of the water out and they are pretty tough. Good company to deal with as well, sent me some offcuts large enough to patch a rip in mine when some arse of a neighbour decided to drive their car along the front of mine.

Yeah, saw that post, dog bloke needs a slap!

Yep another one here for Specialised Car Covers.


It's spot on, very well made and breathable so you can wash your car and put it on straight away if in a rush.

[denisb]

Haven't tested how waterproof the cover is yet but the fit and overall quality of the cover is fantastic.

Very impressed so far. Even the wife thinks it looks good.

Highly recommended.

As above - you get what you pay for.

Make sure it is lined, and also breathable.

I just ordered a fully tailored "Noah" from http://www.theultimatefinish.co.uk/Store/Product/P...

These guys make the cover to fit your exact car - i.e. the Exige one will take into account the rear spolier etc.

Yes they do!!!!

SWMBO has one for her Exige S2 SPP.

Looks good too. It has four straps that hold it really well and safe. In spite of the wind and rain we recieve from the Principality...

I'll download some pikkies of it soon for yooz to perooze!

I've got a "Specialised" indoor cover on my S1 Exige. They were even able to customise it for me as I wanted a small slot for the aerial in mine thet they didn't have as standard. The quality and finish is SUPERB and I'm very happy with it. I just need the car back in one piece so I can use it!
